The disabilities office on campus has recently granted me the permission to keep an ADA service dog in university housing. The catch: they want me to move into a studio apartment, which is both tiny and super expensive.
I am currently living in a 2-bedroom apartment with a roommate, who'd be okay with a dog in the apartment. I'd very much prefer to stay there. Does anyone happen to know if the university can force me to move in order to have a service animal?
Their justification is that if my roommate moves out before I do, they'd have to pre-screen a new roommate (to find someone who'd be okay living with a dog), which requires too much effort on their part.
